Michael Ruse offers a new analysis of the often troubled
relationship between science and religion. Arguing against both
extremes - in one corner, the New Atheists; in the other, the
Creationists and their offspring the Intelligent Designers - he
asserts that science is the highest source of human inquiry. Yet,
by its very nature and its deep reliance on metaphor, science
restricts itself and is unable to answer basic, significant
questions about the meaning of the universe and humankind's place
within it: why is there something rather than nothing? What is the
meaning of it all? Ruse shows that one can legitimately be a
skeptic about these questions, and yet why it is open for a
Christian, or member of any faith, to offer answers. Scientists, he
concludes, should be proud of their achievements but modest about
their scope. Christians should be confident of their mission but
respectful of the successes of science.
